This will only be the start of the crack down on reptiles. They will start chipping away at groups instead of the hobby as a whole. Each time they will take away more and more supporters. A permit system for large snakes and lizards could be benefical but an all out ban is wrong. If they get this bill rolling with no one fighting it then they will move onto the next group. I gurantee monitors as a whole is at the top of the list.
We need to stick together or we be owning goldfish only in the near future if we are lucky.
21,000 votes are still needed to over turn the sneaky law. It only takes a few minutes. I know this doesn't effect the monitor community yet but get ready.
